Is corrosion of aluminium metal a physical change or a chemical change?

It is a chemical change. Through corrosion, a chemical reaction has taken place.


When can corrosion of a metal be helpful?

Some metals, such as aluminium, are actually pretty reactive, but it's hard to see because as soon as an aluminium object comes into contact with air it immediately forms a very thin transparent layer of aluminium oxide. This thin layer of "corrosion" protects the bulk of the metal from further oxidation.


Is corrosion of aluminum metal a chemical?

Corrosion is a chemical process.


What physical appearance is aluminium?

silvery white metal


Does aluminum foil corrode if left outside?

Aluminum foil can corrode over time when exposed to outdoor elements like moisture, salt, and acids in the air. This can cause the foil to become discolored or develop spots. To prevent corrosion, store aluminum foil in a cool, dry place when not in use.


Is Corrosion is a physical property of metals?

No, corrosion is a chemical change of the metal involved.


Why aluminium resistant to corrosion?

Aluminum is resistant to corrosion due to a thin oxide layer that forms on its surface when exposed to air. This oxide layer acts as a protective barrier, preventing further oxidation and corrosion of the metal. Additionally, aluminum's reactivity with oxygen is relatively low compared to other metals, making it more resistant to corrosion.


Is corrosion of a piece of metal chemical or physical?

chemical


Is rusting a metal physical change?

Metal rusting (corrosion) is a chemical change.


Under what conditions does aluminium corrode?

Aluminum, like all metal, errode. The process is called oxidation, because oxygen is what pulls electrons slowly off the metal, that causes rust. Aluminum can errode but many people don't consider it to be a metal. So the answer would be anywhere where oxygen is present.
